This Journal Promises to Boost Productivity & People Are Buying It

A new planner holds a lot of promise. Its blank pages are open and ready for the year to come, when it feels like anything can happen. The Volt Planner is also promising to make your 2017 more productive, and people are buying it—it's already beaten its funding goal on Kickstarter, times 14+.

Ink + Volt, the company behind the popular Spark planners and notebooks, is back with Volt planner. If you're too busy for bullet journaling, but want something more goal-oriented than your basic day planner, Volt hits that sweet spot.

It has your monthly and weekly views, but also has you set yearly and monthly goals, gives you weekly prompts, and has space for you to celebrate your achievements. We all have big goals we want to reach, outside of just crossing things off our to-do list. Volt "takes those big, complex goals and turns them into accomplishments by breaking them down into manageable tasks."
